Stop Pursuing Shadows, Face The Core Objectives Of Your Agency - Human Rights Ad by onochurch(f): 5:28pm On Apr 19 |
Stop pursuing shadows, face the core objectives of your agency - Human Rights Advocate slams EFCC By Onome Naomi In recent times, the operations of the EFCC has been centered on celebrity and individuals who have worked and earned themselves a place amongst the rich in the society but trifled by the agency's modus operandi to sabotage their private lives with the order 'Arrest those who abuse naira by spraying' in parties rather than prioritize the arrest of looters of public funds in government. To this effect, Comrade Prince Saviour Iche, a human rights advocate questions the essence of EFCC, known as the coordinating agency for the enforcement of all economic and financial crimes. He said the motive behind this arrests of celebrities and other individual is uncertain as those who have connections are fined with exorbitant bail condition while those without the capacity of 'Man know Man' is faced with a sentence to be served. Speaking about the core purpose of the agency, Iche condemns EFCC's pursuit of celebrities who sprays naira in parties, says the focus should be on Nigerian leaders who have looted the country's resources. The looters have committed fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, tax evasion, foreign exchange malpractices on several levels. In his statements he said; "EFCC should stop pursuing shadow and chasing clout, what happened to the arrest of leaders in government who have committed fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, tax evasion, foreign exchange malpractices and looting over the years? Instead, the agency is going after people like Bobrisky and Cubana Chief Priest for spraying money and left the most important issue killing our society, unattended to. This is shameful." "It is expected of the EFCC to arrest the python that swallowed billions and the monkey that looted Nigeria treasure. The economy is declining in financial and material resources daily." "EFCC is aware of the harm looters have committed economically, they have drained the government purse yet unapprehended but the agency is firm in pursuing those who spray money at parties." "I do not support the act of abusing naira because it an offence before the law, rather I am of the opinion that the core values and functions of EFCC has been neglected but focused on naira spraying in recent times." "The EFCC should focus more on looters of public funds in public offices to recover the country's stolen resources, cash sprayer at parties shouldn't be a priority.The agency is rated highly but discouraging in it's recent operations." EFCC can only be taken seriously if they act independently not influenced by government's order/decisions on mode of operation. More also, the agency should not allow self be monopolized by corrupt politicians. In reference to Yahaya Bello's arrest, Iche said the EFCC as a commendable agency should apprehend without obstruction as against what played out in Yahaya's case where his security detail stopped the agency from effecting its purpose. Says the act of obstruction of justice simply affirms the core value of EFCC is tarnished, it should be redeemed by setting the record straight. Politicians who have looted public funds in form of budgetary for road construction and other facilities should be defaced over the increased poverty on already suffering Nigerians. Politicians found guilty after recovery of public funds looted should be jailed not released on bail, the recovered funds should affect the nation positively not further looted by others in government, Comrade Iche added.
